Twentieth Global Studies Conference

Twentieth Global Studies Conference, Sorbonne Université, Paris, France, 15-17 July 2027 Founded in 2008, the Global Studies Research Network is devoted to mapping and interpreting past and emerging trends and patterns in globalization. We aim to traverse a broad terrain, sometimes technically and other times socially oriented, sometimes theoretical and other times practical in their perspective, and sometimes reflecting dispassionate analysis while at other times suggesting interested strategies for action. Our aim is to build an epistemic community where we can make linkages across disciplinary, geographic, and cultural boundaries. As a Research Network, we are defined by our scope and concerns and motivated to build strategies for action framed by our shared themes and tensions. Twentieth Global Studies Conference will address the following annual themes and special focus: 2027 Special Focus—The Social Question Revisited: Inequality, Ideology, and Interdependence Theme 1: Networks of Economy and Trade Theme 2: The Power of Institutions Theme 3: Vectors of Society and Culture Theme 4: Ecological Foundations
